Primacy-Recency

==What it means in my own words: The primacy-recency formation process is a person's tendency to give greater weight to information heard first and use information heard later to fine tune the first impression or the reverse.==

==What does it mean in your own words? - Basically its like the first impression you will make on someone or the 1st form of perception you have on something. You may make early decisions or judgements based off of their impression. Not looking at the whole entire picture, rather what the 1st an last impression was in that experience.== ==Examples- I had a primacy effect on starting college classes. I didn't really want to at first but as time progressed the recency effect has made me realize it is important and will only make things better for my career and future.==
